This immersive, studio-based class is all about exploring your artistic voice and creating art with real meaning. We will experiment with a variety of mediums, including painting, sketching, collaging, mixed media, and shadow box art, drawing inspiration from artists like Joseph Cornell and John James Audubon. We will also take a field trip to the Minneapolis Institute of Art and Walker Sculpture Garden for even more creative inspiration. Get ready to discover new skills, fresh ideas, and a community of like-minded artists. If you enjoy exploring new techniques and creating personal, meaningful art, this class is for you!
